Welcome to Intro to Professional and Technical Writing!

"Finish Things" - Neil Gaiman
"Get Busy! - Bruce Campbell

I would like to welcome you all to our Fall 2022 ENG2700, Intro to Professional and Technical Writing class.

The advice above was given to me by two very busy and uniquely prolific people about how to be successful. At the top left, the fantasy and comic book author Neil Gaiman writes, “Finish Things.” In the lower right, the actor and writer Bruce Campbell extorts, “Get busy!” If you follow these two pieces of advice in all that you do now and in the future, you have a shot at being successful in your own right. So, please remember to “get busy,” and always, “finish things.”

Final Portfolio Due Dates, Extra Credit, and Last Class

Final portfolio is due Thursday, Dec. 15 by the end of class FOR EXTRA CREDIT!

Final portfolio is due by the last day of the semester on Wednesday, Dec. 21 FOR REGULAR CREDIT!

If you have completed your final portfolio and submitted it before class on Thursday, Dec. 15, you do not have to attend class. However, Professor Ellis will be in class to answer questions and provide feedback after discussing the final readings in the class on that day.

Week 14

This week, we are primarily focusing on studio time, or time devoted to working on your deliverables, creating your final portfolio, catching up on weekly writing assignments, and any other work product related to the class. Make use of this time and our lab computers to get as much done before you leave today. Add a comment to this post for this week’s weekly writing assignment focused on our penultimate readings.
